Gerald Ribbon and the Bird In His Brain Kindle Edition

by Maxwell Bauman (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars 5 ratings

Gerald Ribbon has a habit of ruining his love life.

The bird in his brain gives him terrible advice, and he is stuck dealing with the consequences.

He screwed up his relationship with Jessica, who has now moved on and is seeing someone new. But the fear of damaging another friendship prevents Gerald from openly expressing his feelings for his best friend, Allen. When Allen begins to date Diana, Gerald feels himself getting left behind and tries to form a wedge between the two. Ultimately, Allen and Diana's relationship reaches a breaking point, and Gerald needs to be louder than the noisy bird in his brain and do what is right for his friend and himself.

    I loved this book so much. The characters are rich and unique. Probably one of the best YA novels I have ever read.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A fun little YA

    Gerald Ribbon is a fun little YA book about boys being boys and brain birds. I rather enjoyed reading this one and thought Gerald was holding in so much. His friends seemed fun and the characters were realistic. The story was a joy to follow and I was never bored. I recommend this one to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing read with no high stakes.

    2.0 out of 5 stars It just is...
    Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2021

    While the writing is decent, and fairly free of errors, the story itself felt lacking. Little to no emotion from the narrator (who is also the MC). Little to no emotion from the supporting characters. Either people on the Hudson are extremely repressed, or these are some odd teenagers. The usual twist of angst and feels that you expect in YA Lit is missing. The main arc of the story seems to span some three or four months, and more time is covered in flashbacks, but nothing truly happens in the time covered. The story ends where it began, no resolution, no growth, no expansion from any of the characters, but especially the protagonist. Some may find this to be an interesting and thoughtful read. The blurb had me thinking there would be drama, excitement, treachery, love, etc., but none of that occurred.

    As to the LGBTQ+ elements, those were even harder to find than the above. And as there isn't any confrontation between any character and some struggle with any LGBTQ+ type of feelings, I feel calling this LGBTQ+ Lit is a mistake. Again, this is mainly due to the lack of LGBTQ+ conflict within the protag and himself, or the protag and the world.

    I honestly wondered if the narration was being told through a drug stained window, thus explaining all the lack of "human-ness" to all the characters.
